That night, Fiennes came to see Su Wan.
Su Wan originally thought that Fiennes would be unhappy that she only picked Xiaoyuan today, and would force a few people on her, but that didn't happen.
Instead, he asked her about the argument she had with Tia's mother today.
Fiennes had his hands behind his back, looking down at Su Wan, his voice light and clear.
"I heard that you had a quarrel with Tia's mother."
Su Wan keenly noticed that Fiennes's address to Mrs. Wang seemed a little wrong...
After all, when Mrs. Wang was present before, Fiennes at least called her mother in person, but now he just called her Tia's mother.
Obviously, Fiennes did not recognize the identity of the middle-aged lady in his heart.
He even doesn't think... Mrs. Wang is his mother...
Su Wan wanted to get through this layer, and her expression became more indifferent. She raised her eyes, looked at the other person's deep, knife-like outline, and nodded very calmly.
"Yes, she mocked me for being ill-mannered, so I just responded with a few small remarks."
A faint light flashed in Fiennes' narrow eyes, so fast that Su Wan couldn't catch what this man was thinking.
Facing Fiennes's eyes, she almost thought that all her thoughts had been exposed.
"I admit that I don't like that lady. What's the problem? For example, should I be more respectful when I see her next time?"
Fiennes's deep blue eyes were so deep that Su Wan could even easily see her own face through his eyes.
There was a hint of anxiety.
Su Wan's heart trembled, and she quickly bit the corner of her lip, and glanced at Fiennes pretending to be aggrieved.
Just when Su Wan was feeling uneasy, Fiennes suddenly spoke.
"It doesn't matter. You don't have to pay attention to that old witch. If she bullies you, you can just fight back. I will take care of anything that happens."
His voice was low and magnetic, echoing in the space, accompanied by the sound of swaying bamboo leaves outside the window, which was very pleasant to hear.
Fiennes actually called Tia's mother an old witch...
Su Wan's eyes widened when he heard this!
She originally thought that Fiennes just didn't like Mrs. Wang. Now, hearing the other party's tone, Su Wan felt that she needed to re-examine Mrs. Wang's position in Fiennes' heart.
It must be more than just indifference... it must be more... I'm afraid it's disgust.
Su Wan had an idea in mind and immediately nodded to Fiennes.
"Okay, I'll remember that."
That night, Fiennes suddenly asked to stay for dinner.
Su Wan was so frightened that she almost lost her soul, fearing that Fiennes would make some even more rude requests.
However, she couldn't refuse directly.
If it was just a meal, it would be bearable.
…
So Fiennes stayed with Su Wan for dinner.
Su Wan sat across the table from Fiennes and felt like she was sitting on a fire pit, suffering all the time.
She had no appetite to begin with, and now, with all her worries, the sight of Fiennes made her even more disgusted.
But Su Wan didn't dare to show it.
Just ate the meal in silence.
Su Wan ate without being able to swallow, and only picked up food from the bowl and plate closest to him.
Fiennes hardly spoke either, and the two of them were like ordinary, distant friends, each eating from their own bowls.
The maid Xiaoyuan didn't understand what Su Wan said at first, but when she saw the two of them eating at the same table, she felt like her eyes were about to pop out!
How does she feel...
Master Fiennes and Miss Su don't seem to have any feelings like lovers.
There was even an extremely awkward atmosphere lingering around the two of them.
Especially Miss Su, the way she eats is like she is counting the number of grains of rice in the bowl...
Just as Su Wan was eating silently, she suddenly saw Fiennes raise his head, his blue eyes fell on her, and his voice was low and distant.
"Is the food of the Siswell family not to your liking?"
Wha…what
Su Wan looked up in a daze. She was daydreaming just now and didn't notice what Fiennes was talking about.
Su Wan immediately looked at the maid Xiaoyuan beside her for help. Xiaoyuan looked a little dazed, but at this moment she was very smart and said something for Su Wan.
"Maybe Miss Su just came here and is not used to the dishes made by the chef. Miss Su, what do you like to eat?"
Su Wan finally realized what Fiennes had just asked after hearing what Xiaoyuan said.
It's really strange...
The more Fiennes showed concern for her, the more uneasy Su Wan felt. If he really just wanted to lure Jiang Xuecheng out, Su Wan would rather Fiennes leave her aside first!
This kind of ambiguous attitude now makes Su Wan really afraid and scared...
She had heard a lot of rumors about Fiennes' love life from Tia.
In short, this young master is a playboy.
Su Wan was most indifferent to this type of people, for fear that they would bring harm to herself.
Su Wan smiled awkwardly at Fiennes.
"No, actually I'm not picky about food. It's just that I haven't been feeling well lately and I have no appetite for anything."
…
Su Wan was telling the truth. Ever since she was infected with the CHK virus No. 3, her appetite has been unstable.
Su Wan thought that by saying this, she could avoid the topic.
Unexpectedly, Fiennes suddenly turned his head and waved at Xiaoyuan.
"I have something to say to Wanwan alone, you go down first."
What is going on
Su Wan looked at Fiennes in confusion, while the maid Xiaoyuan had already tactfully retreated and carefully closed the door for both of them.
Before leaving, the little girl winked at Su Wan, with a teasing look written all over her round face.
It was as if he was sure that the two of them were going to do something shameful.
…
And Su Wan's heart was broken!
She didn't want to be alone with Fiennes at all!
Fiennes looked at Su Wan's white fingertips, then moved his eyes upwards, locking his gaze on Su Wan's beautiful face.
"Are you afraid of me?"
Fiennes's question was not a question but an affirmative one.
It’s over, it’s over, it’s been discovered.
Su Wan's heart skipped a beat. There was no point in denying it now, so she simply nodded in acknowledgement.
"Yes, a little..."
Fiennes's expression did not change when he heard the expected answer.
However, in the next second, the man suddenly stood up and walked directly towards Su Wan.
Fiennes lowered his head and looked at Su Wan in an extremely ambiguous manner.
"Su Wan, if I tell you that I can cure the CHK-3 virus in you, will you be more grateful to me?"
He was really fed up with Su Wan avoiding his gaze all day long, as if he was a plague.
But that day at the racecourse, Jiang Xuecheng was blindfolded and riding his horse at a rapid speed, but Su Wan was still staring at him without blinking, with a smile on her face.
Why are there so many differences in the way people get along with each other
